Rockets and wildlife Two osprey are perched in their nest atop a marshalling area sign in front of the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 7, 2023. In the background is the NASA meatball logo. The center shares a border with the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. More than 330 native and migratory bird species, along with 65 amphibian and reptile species, call Kennedy and the wildlife refuge home. NASA/Ben Smegelsky
